I bought a goal outfit... or two
I bought two dresses. one size 14 and one size 10/11. I can't even imagine fitting into these. I am prob getting my RNY this summer sometime. no date yet! I am currently in a 24/26 dress size... insane to think I may actually fit into these in 18months or so.
What do yall think?
Anyone else buy goal outfits before surgery to help motivate them?
Very pretty:) Yes, Last week my friend and I were shopping and she found a cotton long sleeve dauchsand print shirt ( I have a 5 year old doxie) and we both laughed and said I had to get it. Well I was in the XX sizes and I thought "not going to buy that size"... my surgery is next week. So I bought a medium and look forward to wearing it next Fall. Good luck to you with your weight loss... please post pics when you achieve your goal.
Beautiful dresses! Great incentive, and yes, you will fit into them!

You will discover a sense of empowerment and peace you have never before experienced. You will come to believe you can overcome your challenges and find some joy in this world." Katie Jay
Those dresses are so stinkin' cute! I can see how they would give you incentive. Good luck, and you bet you need to model them once you can fit into them!

Make sure you try them on often! Sometimes you drop so quickly that you miss out on wearing things that you've been saving. I also recommend taking photos of the process: i.e.:with the dress on but not zipped cause it's too tight etc. It is SUCH a great feeling when you can wear it! So not silly at all to buy them for inspiration - you can do it!
